      Sept 2016 - Mar 2019
      Project Manager

      Working at a software start-up has been invaluable in my career development; I was given freedom to take on as much responsibility as I could from very early on and I've thrived off of it. As well as project work, I help to manage all ongoing development too - main responsibilities below:• Work with product owner and customers to gather requirements, analyse business processes and plan what we needed deliver and when.• Run weekly meetings with the development team, and organise daily check-ins, to ensure everyone is on track and without obstacles.• Write up weekly project reports, which are distributed to all key stakeholders. This includes information on tracking budget expenditure and resource allocation.• Manage a range of different projects, from a 5-year £750,000 project for a nationwide finance group to a 3-month smaller-scale project for a younger, smaller business.• Assist in training and support after projects have launched; this involves taking technical feedback from the developers and ensuring it is understandable and helpful to the average software user.
